Cloud storage industry smoke billowing

In recent days, the cloud storage industry smoke billowing, like a flat thunder, network disk suddenly took place between the big giants majestically. Benefit from this war, we can get on the free cloud space on T, I mixed with the Internet for many years, experienced 3Q, 3B and other wars, in this bystander point of view, for everyone to share behind the smoke of war Thinking

After the war

August 12, Jinshan fast disk publicity to lead cloud storage into a new era, permanent free 100G cloud space. As a guide, network disk war officially kicked off. August 14, 360 cloud began to send 360G, August 22, Baidu network disk to carry 1T of permanent space to challenge, and the activity page put a clear 100G + 360G + 564G + 1 dollars equal to 1T, intended to suppress Jinshan Free 100G and 360 360G; the face of Baidu offensive, 360 Armor again, rush to fight, send 666G, and in the microblogging published: "Then send 666G, without a dollar, without tedious payment process, 1T space You just take it. "And just then, some netizens found that Huawei network disk has always been low profile I do not know when it has launched an unlimited cloud space services.

From the capacity point of view, companies have their own magic: Jinshan network disk sent 100G, 360, Baidu were sent 1T, Huawei network disk to send unlimited space. But in fact, whether it is sent 1T, or unlimited, for individual users, most of the space is not available, we get a lot of red blood free space, you need to calm down, only the most suitable choice is Wang Road. Relative to the quality of service, space size is not absolutely important. Just like a year when the T disk, 1T capacity free to send, not long before it fell ...

As of this time, the network disk wars are still going on, through smoke, I would like to talk about my thinking behind the network disk wars.

Why so many giants so invested in cloud storage?

Domestic cloud storage companies dazzling, a few of the Jinshan, Huawei, Baidu, 115, Thunder, 360, etc., careful observation, nothing more than two types: First, pure Internet companies such as 360, Baidu, Thunder, 115, etc. , The other is related to terminal services companies, such as Jinshan network disk (millet, red rice), Huawei network disk and so on.

Pure Internet companies are concerned about the user, traffic, data, cloud storage for such companies is to control the entrance, including the previous 3Q war, 360 and Tencent wars, is also the Internet company's most important entrance. The so-called drunkenness is not the wine, the Internet giant into the cloud storage, send a lot of space, the purpose is nothing more than control the entrance, win the user and access to data, in order to carry out other aspects of promotion and profit.

Baidu before the very popular magic figure came to an abrupt end because of the suspicion of collecting user privacy data, the first financial editor Wang Zheng reminded his friends in the micro-channel do not upload photos, and he worried that this is Baidu Collect data for face recognition, face search.

He said: "Once Baidu has established a personal facial recognition database, linked with information such as cell phone number and unit, what happens? For example, after you touch the car with someone on the elevated floor, For example, if someone in the subway candidly takes a picture of you, you can fully search out microblogging, wechat, others' photos with you, circle of friends, and the past of your life as long as it wishes.

Companies that are involved in terminal services value the sales of their handsets, and the purpose of such cloud storage is to serve the terminal. At present, mobile phones take up a lot of time for ordinary Internet users. Some predict that in the next 5 to 10 years, the mobile Internet will gradually replace the PC Internet. Therefore, companies involved in terminals will continuously improve the quality of mobile phones. Cloud storage, as a kind of mobile phone service, The phone is tightly integrated. The purpose of their cloud storage is to improve the competitiveness of mobile phones and improve the user experience.

As a netizen, how should we choose cloud service?

After the above analysis, our average Internet users how to choose cloud storage services? My point of view as said at the beginning, only the most suitable for their own is the king, the Internet company's network disk, because of its own characteristics is concerned about the user, traffic, Data, so for the user most in need of "service" part is a weakness, contact Baidu cloud deleted files event some time ago, and we all know China Yahoo mailbox full stop service events, can be learned, as a user's personal data storage Network disk, if the service terminated or crashed, the loss to the user is very huge. In addition, there are privacy issues, not repeat them here.

The other hand, the other company, relative to the invisible company of the Internet company, a mobile terminal can be seen around the terminal products and service-assured companies more to allow users to reassure. Mobile phone companies must guarantee the production of mobile phones, and cloud storage services as a mobile phone service must also be effectively protected. Users bought the phone back, if found to have problems, feel free to find the corresponding service outlets to enjoy after-sales service. With such a guarantee, the cloud storage service of the terminal company is relatively more reliable than that of the Internet company.

In combination with the above said, I remind you: select cloud services, with their own actual situation to choose the most suitable for their own, do not be fancy noise on the T-space publicity fascinated by the eyes.

Youdao is:

Glamorous smoke chaos eye, the space easily send T.

Be fair to do service, there is a cloud before invincibility.
